Message

At IPB University, I operate enterprise applications across AWS, GCP, and Azure. I reduced cloud spend by more than $25,000 per year and automated Docker environment provisioning with Terraform, bringing setup down from about two days to a 30-minute pipeline run.

I architected and run an auto-scaling AWS learning platform using Moodle, Aurora MySQL, and Redis for more than 28,000 users. CloudWatch monitoring and alarms integrated with AWS Auto Scaling help maintain 99% system uptime.

Previously, as a System Engineer at IPB University, I migrated VM-hosted applications to Docker and managed workloads with Portainer. I also built CI/CD pipelines with Microsoft Team Foundation Server and automated VM provisioning with Ansible.

My work has included deploying systems for national platforms, including an election system that handled up to 300,000 users on a peak day. I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Science from IPB University.
